The molecule pictured is a nucleic acid, which is a polymer. The monomers that make up this nucleic acid are called

• Monosaccharides

• Nucleotides

• Amino Acids

• Fatty acids

A hydrolysis reaction

• Forms polymers

• breaks down polymers into monomers

When amino acids form a chain and are connected by peptide bonds, as in the picture, this is an example of which protein structure?

• Primary (1st)

• Secondary (2nd)

• Tertiary (3rd)

• Quaternary (4th)

Two atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons are known as

• Ions

• Isotopes

• Isomers

What is the dependent variable on the graph?

• Time

• Count Rate

The polymer pictured is an example of a

• Lipid

• Protein

• Carbohydrate

• Nucleic Acid
